Personal Bests and The Bests that are yet to come.

Its not quite October (3 months left to go!) and I’m setting new personal records in knitting this year.  I’ve exceeded my previous most completed projects count.  I’m only 4 pair away from doubling my lifetime sock knitting count with all the socks I’ve knit this year, and I’m only about 450 more yards until I hit 10 miles of yarn stitched up! (Hello next sock pair in the queue!)

This past month I was working on another felted KAL basket and finishing up projects for other people.  Including 6 sock pairs all in the same pattern.

In only marginally related news, I also solved my sock drawer problem of running out of space for new socks by removing all non-handknits from the drawer.  I think I may have made room for a couple more pair and can probably look at a few pair that have felted a bit or don’t fit just right anymore now.  Also my husband installed a small expandable drying rack in the utility room so I have a dedicated space for drying them.

Next month I am expecting my first installment for a sweater club I signed up to join.  I had to give up all my hand knit sweaters after losing 80+ lbs, so I might as well get started on some new ones!  Expect to see some bigger projects soon!

(Now I just need to figure out…. what am I making anyone for Christmas from myself???)
